                Saturday 12-10-18   Dear Fr. Provincial P.C.   Your letters with enclosures <lb/>arrived yesterday.  I shall do all I can to settle the bills &amp;c and <lb/>shall let you know when I have finished <lb/>with them. I fear however that your Reverence <lb/>must have patience; for we are 'in the blue' at <lb/>present, and shall be going further and further <lb/>away from civilization for some time to come.  Concerning that cheque which Fr. Fitzgibbon <lb/>wrote out in <hi rend="underline">pencil</hi>, I shall write first for <lb/>the pencilled cheque, before sending one in <hi rend="underline">ink</hi>. <lb/>When I have squared everything I shall <lb/>let you know whether I owe you anything, or <lb/>you owe me.  I am sorry you should have been caused all <lb/>this trouble, which, had I not been on leave at <lb/>the time, might have been easily done by me.  If there is any other 'knotty' points which I might <lb/>be of use to you in settling, please let me know. <seg type="closer"> Yours very respectfully in xt.   W. Keary. S.J. </seg>
